Looking to start strength training at home?!
So I've been running for a month now, I've nearly completed week 4 of couch to 5k, but I want to add some weight/strength training in there in hopes that I can build some muscle and work the parts of my body running isn't getting. I have no idea where to begin with this, I want to do it at home as I'm way too poor for a…

30 Day Shred?
I'm thinking of buying it, is it any good? Currently I'm 123lb and 5' 7", which means that I'm about adequate for my height. However, I need to tone my stomach, apparently 30 day shred's quite good for toning and so I thought I'd give it a go. I read somewhere about weight training with 30 day shred, will I need to buy…

Frustrated
Normally when I diet, I lose weight very quickly. So far, two weeks in, I lost a pound, then put it back on, along with another pound :S What gives? I'm doing what I normally do, sticking to my calories, making sure I exercise every day. The only thing I've done differently was that I didn't exercise on Monday && Tuesday…

BMI
I was calculating it since I was always so sure I wanted to get down to 120lb, but I'm 5'7, and at 126lb I'm considered to be at a healthy weight, by getting down to 120lb then I'm 2lb off the marker for being underweight(118lb) and it can't be good to be so near being underweight, can it? I noticed that so far on my new…

Still losing :)
I haven't weighed myself ina bout a week now, but I can still see differences, although I've been slacking on excercise(it was a planned slack, I had the cervial cancer vaccine on Monday and knew that I would need a few days off afterwards). However, I've been keeping with my diet, (except for yesterdays sponge pudding,…

Feeling great :)
I just thought I'd share how I feel my journey is going. So far, although I've only lost 4lb, I can see a difference, and my mom is saying she can see a difference too, my size 8 shorts are now loose, and when I brought them they were tight. I'm looking forward to putting on my school trousers on Tuesday since when I…

Weight fluctuations?
Why is it that when I weigh myself at nighttime(not every night, but quite a lot), one day I'll be a certain weight, then gain a little the next day, then the day after that weight will be gone, and a little more?

What time of day do you work out?
Do you do it in the morning, afternoon or evening? And does anybody have any tips for excercising in the morning? I generally only do it in the evening even if my morning's free, because I shower in the evening before I go to bed, and excercising in the morningtime would mean having an odour coming off me all day.

Feeling ill?
I've noticed during the past couple of days that about halfway through my workout, I begin feeling unwell. My head starts to spin, and I'm feeling sick. This generally happens to me if my body is slightly too warm(I've been constantly waking up at about 6AM the past couple of days to find myself covered in sweat, and when…

A new means for motivation I've given myself
So yesterday I went out and I got myself some new jeans. The catch, however, is that the jeans are a tad bit small. And now I'm forced to lose the weight to fit into them. So now whenever I'm reaching for my comfort foods, I think to myself 'the jeans wont fit if you eat that.'

Hiiii
I'm Ellen, I'm 18 and from England. Currently I'm 5 foot 7 and I weigh 127lb, I'd like to lose about 7lb pretty much primarily using wii fit. But by doing walking several days a week too. I'm getting quite a lot of motivation since I was talking with a guy friend the other day, and I was telling him how I had a dream that…
